OFHG help.. need Torque Numbers

x3sm · 09-28-2022, 09:29 PM

Hey guys,

I decided to tackle the Oil Filter Housing Gasket replacement and so far I can't say it's been a hard job, just takes a while.

Now, I need some help finding various torque numbers. What are the bolts holding the oil filter housing to block torqued to? There are 3 different bolts. Does anyone have a torque pattern as well?

Also, since I had to remove water pump pulley, PS pulley, idler pulley, etc… do I need to replace all those bolts? Can any of these bolts be re-used?

Thank you!!

I searched, and looked at that thread. But none of them have info on torque numbers for the oil filter housing bolts. They are all different sizes.

That makes sense that Torque numbers are different, since there are two types of bolts M6 and M8 style. Although there are 6 different part numbers for all of the 10 bolts, they are either M6 or M8!
